Opened for him at 'The Quiet Night' in Chicago. He was sitting at the bar between sets, staring into a beer. A young lady w/a Farrah Fawcett hairdo approaches him and says, sprightly, "You're songs are all so depressing...don't you do any happy songs?" W/o looking up from his beer he said, "Lady, I haven't been happy since 1956." And continues to stare at his beer. She stood there w/mouth agape and finally walked off w/a sort of dazed look on her face. I laugh out loud to this day when I recall the scene...he's one of a kind.
